    Default Re: Google Chrome Browser admin login problem

    I too am getting an "There was a security error when trying to login." error with google chrome 7.0.517.44 unknown.
    I can login fine with safari, firefox and IE.
    Originally I had an older version of chorme, v5x and I was getting a session time out error when I went to checkout.

    Now, having upgraded I get the error above.
    Seem suspiciously like a session\cookie issue with chorme but I can't find where to fiddle with the setting in chrome..

    Any advice greatly received!

    OK I'm fixed.
    Having followed all the instructions in the post by Melanie I tried the
    "Use root path for cookie path" true and viola!

    All sorted now.

    Cheers Guys 'n Gals

    Thwack, what exactly do you mean by "Use root path for cookie path"? I'm running my Zen Cart on an OpenSUSE server with apache 2.12 and php5.3. I've been trying to figure out how to get webkit browsers working for days on end now. very frustrated.

    I have a customer who has the same problem -- she can't login to her customer account in the ipad. Has anyone found a solution to this?

    Default Re: Google Chrome Browser admin login problem

    This is my first post about a seemingly unresolved and long-term problem people have encountered.

    Zen Cart version 1.5.0.
    CentOS 6.2
    Xampp for Linux
    Chrome Browser v17.0.963.79 m
    Windows 7
    No upgrade, no add-ons, out of the box install (5 minutes ago.)
    This is a development site, sitting at an IP address.

    The problem is twofold:
    • Logging into the Admin area, the login page simply reloads, no errors.

    • Logging into the front end, as a customer, I get a 404 page note found error.


    I do NOT get "There was a security error when trying to login" as some people have reported. Just the symptoms above.

    I have tried several things from the article here:
    https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=84

    - Cleared cache, closed browser, re-opened browser (done this many times over, but I know you'll ask me if I have. :)
    - Not using safe browsing mode.
    - Turned off Windows Firewall.
    - Checked to ensure cookies are enabled.
    - No server errors occuring.
    - Not using WWW, so nothing to test by removing that.
    - No directory or filenames with spaces.
    - SSL is disabled.

    My access_log for the httpd service is:
    192.168.2.18 - - [22/Mar/2012:23:12:58 -0400] "POST /backoffice/login.php?camefrom=index.php&zenAdminID=f857vogop9bihtehvsncmk7ba2 HTTP/1.1" 302 -
    192.168.2.18 - - [22/Mar/2012:23:12:58 -0400] "GET /backoffice/index.php?zenAdminID=mi7dg23kie5n76110r4j04ngq1 HTTP/1.1" 302 -
    192.168.2.18 - - [22/Mar/2012:23:12:58 -0400] "GET /backoffice/login.php?camefrom=index.php&zenAdminID=6j5pgpu20bggff503b4k96okc2 HTTP/1.1" 200 2224
    192.168.2.18 - - [22/Mar/2012:23:12:58 -0400] "GET /favicon.ico HTTP/1.1" 304 -

    Looks like some redirection. Not sure if this is a hint?

    Then I went to this article:
    https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/i...hp?article=281

    - Closed, opened, cleared cookies/cache, closed, opened, repeated until blue in the face, as per the previous article.
    - Haven't touched style sheets or templates.
    - Yes, I turned of the firewall as per the previous article.
    - HTTPS support is off, as per previous article.
    - Changed paths in admin/includes/configure to HTTP (removed the HTTPS).
    - It mentions session-auto-start and transitive-sid for PHP settings, but doesn't mention what I could try with these.

    Other articles I've stumbled across mention changing PHP settings in the .htaccess files, but again, it's unclear what the settings should be.

    Thanks for your time!

    Also, another thing I tried from Google searches on the subject:

    Toggling the "Use root path for cookie path" setting.

    And jsut to confirm:
    - I know that this works in IE and FireFox on my Windows 7 machine (both newest versions at this time.) While this may seem like a workaround, it would be nice to know why it doesn't work locally, so that I can be instilled with faith that this will work on a production platform.

    Thanks!

    Try setting up a proper TLD instead of using an IP address for your HTTP_SERVER setting. Chrome seems to work a lot better that way ... and a true production-ready store won't be run off just an IP address anyway.

    Well I'll be fidaddled, it worked. Took a modification to my test networks Windows 7 hosts file, but it worked.

    Glad that at least my first post was thorough, and I didn't get a "read the stinkin' manual" reply. :)

    On that note, I haven't noticed this with many other web applications I've worked with. My tendency for curiosity has me wondering why this is this way?

    None the less, thanks for the help!

    If you use ip like http://127.0.0.1 to visit zencart in chrome, that would be problem.

    Better to use name, like http://localhost not ip

    Can't login to admin using Chrome Version 54.0.2840.71 m (64-bit). No problem with other browsers.
    I can see the login page but as soon as I try to login it goes to "Aw, Snap!" page. Information on that page does not help either.

    This issue just started happening after uninstalling then re downloading new Chrome Version 54.0.2840.71 m (64-bit) then re installation and re boot.

    I have read the https://www.zen-cart.com/content.php?258 page. I have not made any changes to the site.

    Any ideas how to fix this issue?
